Tofu Tuesday: Textiles

It’s a week until winter arrives and we’ve been hit with a sudden cold snap. Heater, dehumidifier and hot water bottles were deployed last night.

The last few weeks has seen me stocking up on warm things at Kmart. It’s my new favourite discount store. Most of the time I’m browsing for bargains. Things that look more expensive and well made than their price suggests. It’s kind of a game.

I’m on a bit of a geometric kick at the moment which you may have noticed if you follow my Pinterest boards.

Above we have Tofu the bunny with black and white geometric scarf and blue tone geometric cushion from Kmart.

Tofu looks great with geometric patterns! He must be happy to be warm in them too.
We are supposed to be on our way into summer here, but we’ve just been having rain and cold,… and I think someone up there got confused with London and Barcelona, hey, get the weather right please!

Hello Sally! In the heart of winter, we will wake up to find Tofu sleeping on our bed. Upon closer inspection, it turns out that he likes to sit on top of the (now just warm) hot water bottle that is hidden under the blankets. He must scrounge around the bed looking for the best warm spot.

Oh, Auckland winters are easy compared to some places. We don’t get to negative temperatures here either. 2°C that we had the other day is considered very cold for Auckland…and it’s not even winter yet!

The Koala has been getting up at 5.30am for his new job. It’s so dark and cold at that time. I hate to know what temperature it is. We’ve been using our heater for a few weeks but we don’t have one in our bedroom. We must invest in a small bedroom heater.
